Perfect for our family

Cypress Cottage was the best pet friendly property we have stayed at. Our little dog loved sunbathing on the deck and our 9 month old got his best sleep to date in the pack n play set up in the guest room. The property was not booked the night before our trip so the host reached out and let us know we could check in a couple of hours early which was huge with a baby who naps in the afternoon. Thank you for the best experience!

Golf road trip with dogs

Amazing location with a super dog friendly yard and deck. Cottage is charming, well equipped and cozy when cool sea air comes by. Management was very available, accommodating and helpful. We would highly recommend this location!

Wedding weekend

Such a cute home for the three of us. We were in town for one my daughter’s BFF’s wedding weekend. Location was close to venue and everything. Perfect home, lots of privacy from neighbors. Susan was very welcoming and even reached out to let us know we could check in early. The home had everything you’ll need for a wonderful stay. It was perfect!

Great stay.

We enjoyed our stay at the Cypress cottage. It is about 5 minutes from the downtown area. And also about 5-10 minutes from Carmel valley that has a Safeway and Lucky. Susan was super responsive whenever I texted her with questions. Would recommend!

Carmel Cottage

Always a wonderful stay in this sweet little cozy cottage. Plenty of room, well appointed and the outside deck is amazing. Our two dogs love it! The location is perfect, close to Hwy 1, downtown Carmel, Carmel Valley, Monterey and Pacific Grove.This was our second time there and it will now be a permanent stomping ground from Napa when we visit our friends there.Thank you!

Carmel Cottage

The cottage is fresh, light and modern, but still retains a wonderful Carmel vibe. It is very nicely appointed, well maintained, and had everything we needed. There is even a fabulous deck that spans the entire length of the house. We also appreciated the quiet neighborhood. This place is so amazing and was just perfect for our visit to Carmel.

Perfect spot in Carmel

Charming cottage in a quiet spot close to town. Photos don’t do it justice. Felt like a home away from home and was probably the best VRBO experience I’ve ever had.

Every detail perfect for our family!

My family and I had the most amazing time at The Cypress Cottage! Every detail was so beautiful and well thought out. Truly charming in every way! The kids enjoyed the bunk room and there was plenty of space outside for the kids to play. The disc swing was our kids' favorite part of the house. We also appreciated their recommendations for dining and kids' activities in the welcome book. The neighborhood was nice and quiet and it was a very quick drive over to downtown Carmel. It's a perfect location for visiting both Carmel and Monterey. Some details that I thought were nice: they welcomed us with the sweetest little note giving us a glimpse into the heart of their family. They offered us tea, coffee, and hot chocolate at the coffee bar in the kitchen. They provided beach towels for us to use when we went to the beach which was wonderful since we didn't think to bring our own! All in all, this home was perfect for our family and for our first visit to the Monterey Peninsula. We will be back and we will be sure to tell our friends about The Cypress Cottage!

Beautiful Carmel house

We had a fabulous getaway at the Cypress Cottage. It was adorable, well stocked with everything we needed, fit our family of 4 perfectly and was in a great location. It was also extremely clean and easy to communicate with property managers. I would definitely love to stay at the Cypress Cottage again.
